MONTREAL'S BEST FOOD! 10 Foods You Must Try Now

Bonjour...great video...but please Montréal always takes an accent on the "e"...no metter the language. Merci

[@danielgareau2836]

Glad you included "steamies" and fries which is often forgotten by others discussing iconic Montreal foods. That being said, I've gone to the Greenspot and their version is not very good and their fries taste a little weird. Ironically you were just a few stores down from a much better version at New System BBQ. The best places for this are The Montreal Pool Room and the La Belle Province chain (especially the one at the corner of Ste. Catherine and St. Laurent).

Lebanese garlic sauce “toum”. Easy to make. Great on sharwama.

[@tusk3260]

Must try St Hubert, its a really popular chain restaurant in all of french Canada (eastern Ontario, Québec and New Brunswick) including Montréal. And i recommend their Hot Chicken (it is NOT what you think) also try their quarter chicken.

[@tusk3260]

@@giseledubois6565 actually in Canada there is two kinds of garlic sauce, there is toum but the most pupolar is Aoli, its a sweeter kind of garlic sauce. We have many versions of Aoli and we love to dip pizza in it.

[@nancieboulay2186]

I am really glad to see you ventured outside of the Plateau. Most people visiting Montreal tend to stick to the Plateau and Old Montreal. It’s really nice to see a different perspective. And yes, the food is great in this city.

The saddest situation is when some tourists stay exclusively in the area around Sherbrooke and Crescent, visiting posh boutiques and very generic restaurants. I'm glad you visited Old Montréal, the Old Port, the Plateau, Mile End but also other areas.

[@stephenworthington-white8294]

The Lebanese garlic sauce is called toum, its not mayo as there is no egg. It is an emulsion though that is why it is thick. It is just garlic, lemon juice, water salt and vegetable oil. I love this sauce. Cheers I miss eating in Montreal!!

[@DelightfulTravellers]

Thanks for the info Stephen 😀 - Trevor

[@Onlyinbean]

As an Armenian we have many who come from Lebanon also. This is how I discovered Toum sauce. It is the best and most tasty garlic sauce in the world if prepared correctly.

[@pasencoreunautre]

I used to live in the Saint Henri district for many years. Restaurant Green was within walking distance from where I worked and I often went there for a quick lunch. As you mentioned, their hot dogs are delicious but so are their french fries and their smoked meat sandwiches! Glad you liked it!

I’m not sure how I came across your channel, but loved this video. I was born and raised in Montreal, so I can attest to how wonderful some of the places you ate at actually are. I loved how you said St Viateur. As an English Montrealler, we said Saint Vee-a-ter, with the emphasis on the a. Personally, I like them better than Fairmont. Next time, you MUST go to Decarie Hotdog for their toastie. You won’t be disappointed. The people who sent you to Lesters know what they’re talking about. I sometimes went there for lunch from my high school. Much better than Schwartz’s. Thanks for taking me down memory lane.

fun video to watch, thanks. Interesting to find out you get St-Viateur bagels in Halifax, but to me a big part of the bagel is getting them from the store, with the wood burning oven open, the smell, the fogging of the glasses in winter, as well as the challenge of buying a dozen and getting home with more than 9 left. Again great watch.

@Valerie Daryl You go on the Plateau, or Little Italy, near marché Jean-Talon. Mile end is cool, but a bit more touristy. Forget Crescent, Old Montreal is nice but an afternoon at most. Check out Le Quartier Latin, St-Denis. And St-Laurent north of Sherbrooke. Parc LaFontaine and Parc Mansonneuve is nice for a Picnic. Also, it's a walking and bike city... enjoy your trip!!!

Hey Trevor & Anna, looks like you had a wonderful and delicious visit to Montreal! Thanks for highlighting some neighbourhoods outside the downtown & old port areas.

[@chriskazanas9941]

Hi guys just happened to fall on this vid. I am a born and bred Montrealer and like all the Greeks in this city heavily involved in the restaurant business in the city. A few comments about your tasting, yes lesters has been around for ever and it does supply many of rest of the restaurants in the city with smoked meat, however Lester's meat is factory made and not aged or smoked on the premises like Schwartz. Schwartz does taste different, it tends to be a little dryer and crumbles much more easily but it is more flavourful. If you come back I do recommend you try it so you can compare. Hot Dogs are good pretty much anywhere in the city but if you want to try the best, then you need to come back in the winter and go to a Habs game because bar none a Bell Centre hot dog is the best in the city. As an added bonus you get to watch a game in the best atmosphere in the NHL, mind you with the habs sucking so badly this year you may want to wait till next season lolll. Chris

[@mmarus]

Not a bad video. As others have stated glad you stepped out of downtown and the plateau. I have lived in St-Henri for 20+ years and it is ever changing. The spots you picked, were ... surprising, but good, with the exception of Boustans, I had an audible groan when I saw you stop there. SOOOOO much on Notre Dame. I mean you walked from Arthurs, to Boustans and somehow bypassed 3 amazing Taco spots, Bucky Roosters, le Kioko and Satay Brothers.... But all good, I guess taste comes into play, just happy St-Henri was on the map.

[@DelightfulTravellers]

All of the places we visited were recommended by locals in Montreal. We can't get everything right remember as we're tourists after all. I think you enjoyed the video so thanks 😀 - Trevor

[@sharoncarter5365]

You can get those garlic potatoes at Villa Medina in the food court of MicMac Mall. The sauce is Middle Eastern...kind of like mayo and some of the North American chain places actually add some mayo to tone down the strong garlic. Mezza also uses it but I like Villa Medina better.

[@johnvermette9466]

Being born and raised in Montreal, I have to say that the MAIN REASON why you were refered to Lester's is, I believe, out of jealousy. I'll explain : Schwartz's is the ORIGINAL Montreal smoked meat recipe, but since it's always full with a long waiting line outside, ALWAYS, people will recommend Lester's restaurant, because it is (at least in my opinion) the second best smoked meat in Montreal! The Schwartz's smoked meat is covered in a special blend of spices for a total of 8 to 10 days before being steamed almost a day and that's why the meat is so moist, soft and tender packed with loads of flavors!

[@HabsFan1978]

Honorable mention: Smoke Meat Pete's is up there too for best smoke meat in Montreal.

[@hatersgotohell627]

I'm not a smoke meat person but Schwartz was a total tourist trap when I went. It was 75 degrees and humid out waited in a line for 40 mins all to sweat in packed place where it felt like 95 degrees. Not worth it in my opinion.

[@robertturcotte8277]

Dunn's on Decarie has great smoked meat too. And great strawberry cheesecake. You can also get tell glasses of black cherry soft drink from the fountain with free refills. Black cherry is the essential brink with smoke meat. You should also try the Orange Julep across the street. Great hot dogs, poutine, and much more. They are famous for their Orange Julep. A unique creamy orange drink. A must try.

[@nathalieasselin2251]

Great video guys, and when it comes to Montreal food, that was just the tip of the iceberg 😊 As a born Montrealer now living near Moncton, you’ve made me both happy and home sick all at once 😂. By the way the hot dog bun is also steamed, that’s why it’s so soft.

From Montreal, now living in France. Went back to Montreal for the summer last year and definitely went for a poutine at La Banquise, a special Wilensky, a few bagels for the road...and a Schwartz! Lester is fine too (I enjoy their poutine with smoked meat) but Schwartz has a smoked meat that has more fat, but is also more delicious in my view. You went for the classic fast food type of meal but Montreal also have plenty good "real" restaurants to offer. I have not tried all the sandwiches you tried in this video but in my view, Montreal's best sandwiches are at Olives&Gourmando. I am not making any specific recommendations as they are all delicious, so are all their pastries. Montreal is a multicultural city: my favorite place for brunch is "Byblos" an persian restaurant, their omelette à la feta is fantastic, the babaghanouj salad from "Damas" (syrian, as the name suggest), Le petit Alep (or its big brother the "Alep")...all so good! The gourmet québécois "Au pied de cochon" and so many more.

[@ugowhereiwent]

You should try Wilensky's sodas. I always go with a cherry cola, but there are different flavors. They make them with fruit syrup and soda . (Strawberry, pineapple, etc.)

[@fredklein3829]

Great job! You were smart to avoid Schwartz -- it's not what it used to be. Lesters' is William Shatner's fav but there are many other good options as well.

[@HotBranch]

I enjoy watching travel/food videos about Montreal, and yours was especially fun to watch because I not only knew all the places you visited, but I knew the side streets and parks where you were filming your consumption of said foods. Saint Henri has a growing food scene, and the parking lot you walked past after the donut is next to my favorite burrito place, Tejano. Boustan, while excellent, is a small chain and you probably would have enjoyed Sumac as an option, which was the next block over (on your way to Green Spot). As for hot dogs in Montreal, Decarie Hot Dog is my personal favorite, but that wasn't exactly within the walkiung routes you seemed to have planned out for the videos. Should you return to Montreal, Little Burgundy (Petite Bourgogne) has some fantastic BBQ (Boucan) and crepes (Spanel). There is also a boom in fried chicken options throughout the city. Verdun is another neighborhood you should consider for a walking and eating tour.

I just started looking at your video. I lived in Montreal for 25 years and there were two famous bagel shops, St. Viateur and Fairmont. Both are excellent, but I prefer St. Viateur as it’s not as sweet. You said there is one in Halifax. I looked on line and I see only the original and a few around Montreal. Where is the one in Halifax? BTW, it’s pronounced Via Tour! Locals also go to Schwartz! As someone said, the medium fat is the way to go when ordering your smoke meat. Your Lester sandwich looked lean! The Montreal smoke meat is more like corn beef ( brisket), versus the pastrami type in NYC

So Lester's for smoked meat. I've never heard of it but I didn't grow up in downtown Mtl - I grew up in the suburbs so maybe that's why. And no, there probably wasn't any sauerkraut on your smoked meat Trevor, I think that's a New York thing to put it on their pastrami sandwiches. That maple dessert looked really good.

about as sweet as sugar pie- funny was raised on these, but now i just find them too sweet- though the cream would slightly cut it down and make it a bit easier. Pudding chômeur (literally unemployed pudding) was just a fast cheap things to make.

La Binerie is also legendary because it was featured in 1980s drama film Le Matou.

Hey there! The pudding chômeur, if you wanna pronouce it the way it's intended to be try: Pudding (Show-mer) like you would pronounce the name Homer but with a shhh sound before.

Great video guys! Montreal is a great city. Lots to see and do but most importantly EAT..lol I know you've visited Greece in the past(I'm greek canadian) there's lots of hidden gems in our city! Mr. Puffs for awesome loukoumades and freddo cappuccino! Elatos for really good gyros/souvlakis. For other great ethnic food try out ma poule mouillé for portuguese chicken and for a good burger try out Uniburger. Enjoy your stay!

[@DelightfulTravellers]

We keep hearing about the portuguese chicken! We so need to try it next time. We have some great versions here in Halifax as well - Trevor

I always got my hotdog at the Montreal Pool Room on St. Laurent. "Deux hotdog, all-dressed, avec un Pepsi". Ate them standing up by the front door.

[@DelightfulTravellers]

We'll have to look that place up! - Trevor

[@kirmussaudio7578]

Or LAFLEUR or Orange Julep Decarie?

[@juliettefong121]

@@DelightfulTravellers something of interest is Montreal Pool Room is in the heart of the Red Light district Café Cléopâtra is directly across the street & is heritage protected, that is why it is nesting in the posh/lux Le Central food court. It is also 5-10 minute walk from Chinatown and Quartier des spectacles.

[@davidhurst8556]

omg now you are in food heaven in Montreal. i grew up in Montreal and the food is to die for. 1 place you need to try for the real donnar is village grec again as in most places in Montreal where the food is amazing is small but so worth the trip for the donnar.

[@DelightfulTravellers]

We will be sure to look that place up David. Thanks - Anna

Schwartz IS a tourist trap. Main in front is way better. But you guys made the right choice, Lester's is the best smoked meat in Montreal. Based on the places you went, you really did your homeworks. La Banquise is also a tourist trap by the way. It's not bad but there so many better places. There are hardly any cheese in their poutine, I always ask for at 2x extra cheese and even then. I look at the poutine you guys ate and I want to cry. Next time you come, try the Big Nasty at Dinette Triple Crown, the Buck Burger at Dilallo and the poutine at Paul Patates

[@dr.annalisawilson772]

I love schnitzel so will definitely try the sandwich.

[@quiz-blasters227]

Look at the size of this sandwich. it is huge. Nice food tour. Thanks

[@Morocco-m3s]

Good luck and continued success, good luck and success 👍

[@alexs6352]

The roll on your steamie is just commercial hotdog rolls you can buy at the grocery store, the trick is they keep them in the steamer with the hotdogs. They must get infused with hotdog essence or something lol

[@Axerix]

Steak Frite is also a must try in Montreal. Thick Filet Mignon, medium rare, with often choices of sauce, and French fries, usually long and thin. That’s it. Again, simple 😜😋

[@DelightfulTravellers]

Yum!

[@adeelraiz8172]

God bless you and your family

[@DelightfulTravellers]

[@snat1998]

I completely agree that Lester's is the best!

[@arman6119]

Don't know where you got the steamed hot dog but we used to get them on "The main" St Lawerence street.....Steamed hot dog, fries (fresh cut) and a coke a cola...25 cents...guess that tells you my age lol
